About

Pétur Jóhann Sigfússon (born 1972) is an Icelandic actor, comedian and radio host who has been a staple of Iceland's entertainment scene since winning the country's 'Funniest Man' title in 1999. He is best known for playing the naive, party-loving Ólafur Ragnar in the sitcom trilogy Næturvaktin, Dagvaktin and Fangavaktin, which he also co-wrote. For decades he has also toured Iceland with stand-up shows built around wry, self-deprecating stories from his own life.
